Awe and Enchantment, in the Company of Ocean Giants | Amos Nachoum | TEDxBerkeley

Amos Nachoum dispels myths of dangerous ocean giants and shows us just how enchanting the relationship between man and animal can be. Amos Nachoum is a master of photographing big animals worldwide. He free dives with blue whales off the Eastern Pacific, scuba dives in the Okavango delta with crocodiles, and goes face to face with the great white shark. Since 1980, he has explored every significant body of water from the North Pole to Antarctica. Amos’s photographic vision is to raise awareness of ocean giants in their habitats. His images reflect respect and compassion for animals and wilderness. His photographs strive to dispel the myth of “dangerous” wildlife and show harmonious interactions between man and animal. Amos is an explorer. He leads wildlife photography expeditions with his company BigAnimals.com. Amos's photos and essays have appeared in publications including National Geographic, Time, Life, The New York Times, Condé Nast Traveler, Le Figaro, Terra Sauvage, Airone, and Der Spiegel. Amos's photography won the Nikon contest, and he is a two-time winner in the animal behavioral category of the BBC Wildlife Photographer of the Year Award. In 2021 he placed first as world nature photographer of the year. In 2019, Amos was nominated to be the SeaKeepers man of the year along James Cameroon, David Attenborough, Dr. Sylvia Earle and Jacques Cousteau. The movie "Picture of his Life", about Amos career and ultimate diving adventure with polar bears, was received with great review in Europe and in the USA. This talk was given at a TEDx event using the TED conference format but independently organized by a local community. Learn more at https://www.ted.com/tedx
